Talking about the new immigration rules, he said, “The Canadian government is now strict on immigration frauds. Genuine people are welcomed. Youth should to follow the right path for immigration.”
 
 
“I am here to seek the blessings of the Almighty. Golden Temple is the holiest place in the word and I often come here during my visit to Punjab,” he added.
